Seems like we are all having an issue finding them then.

Does anyone know if the white lettering can be removed? I.e. is it paint or actual white rubber?

GG AT3's are definitely one to consider. I just wished they look a bit more aggressive on the tyre wall. My AT2's always looked a bit lost in 235/85 form.

As much as I'd like the MT/R's, the noise issue makes them a no go and I don't think they do Duratrac's in 235/85, which is a shame.

The Mickey Thompson tyres are interesting, but I can't find a supplier here in the UK.

I thought sourcing the tyres would have been the easiest part of my restoration Laughing

The white lettering just gets put on the inside (when correctly installed!).

I run Toyo Open Country mud terrians and have to say they are very quiet. I've only put about a 1000 miles on them but very impressed with them. James

Thank you for confirming that JOW.

It's good to know that the Toyo's aren't so noisy - they look a good tyre and one I would have considered, however I came across some new old stock KO2's last night, so ordered them - hopefully they are all okay when they arrive Monday.

Just need to find two more now.
